This report covers the 2014 calendar year. It was prepared in accordance with the G4
Sustainability Reporting Guidelines developed by Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), and
includes additional disclosures required by the Electric Utilities Sector Supplement.
This is the first report that we’ve published using the GRI G4 guidelines.
